"Qiao Xiezheng, I'll talk about everything now. Everything was arranged by Niu Chuanshan. I was only responsible for dismantling the four cannons, disguising them as damaged cannons, sending them out for repair. After being transported out, the people sent by Niu Chuanshan took the cannons away and hid them. The gunners were selected from the water camp, probably to bombard the Bai Mansion. I only know these, and now I can only let you deal with them!"

Qiao Yu asked a few more questions, and Deng Hua answered truthfully. It seems that he knew this. The most urgent task is to find the artillery as soon as possible to avoid casualties. Although the possibility of bombarding the Bai Mansion is very high, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not bombard other places. If his family has a big business, it will be a big loss to shoot a few shots in the factory area. Qiao Yu immediately arranged for people to patrol everywhere.

At this moment, gunfire was heard from the dock, and Han Yong had already fought with the water camp, but the gap was seen in this firefight. The new army had excellent guns and accurate shooting. Under the leadership of some veterans, it quickly pressed the water camp. The guns on the water camp were behind and the range was close, and there was no machine gun to suppress the formation, so they were quickly beaten to the point of being unable to raise their heads.

The commander of the Water Defense Battalion was named Li Jiuru. He was a typical old-school soldier. He was most loyal to the Qing Dynasty. However, he had long seen Qiao Yu make trouble in Chongqing. He was very excited since he received Niu Chuanshan's letter. He also complained that Niu Chuanshan was too indecisive. If he had started a few months earlier, the old guy would not have developed at this time. He immediately began to prepare and prepare to attack Qiao Yu's troops.

However, the old guy also knew that Qiao Yu had a large number of men and well-equipped, so he could not deal with it. However, Niu Chuanshan repeatedly guaranteed that he could eliminate Qiao Yu and others as soon as possible. By then, the group of dragons had no heads, so it would naturally be easy to deal with it. Therefore, the old guy was completely relieved. Now that the two armies began to shoot at each other across the street, Li Jiuru felt huge pressure, and what he hated was the other party's machine gun. One sweep was a large area. The people on his side were like wheat, and they could not break through the other party's blockade at all.

The officers under his command couldn't stand it anymore: "Sir, you can't watch your brothers die in vain. Let's pull up the cannons and bombard them with cannons, otherwise you will not be able to stop the machine guns at all!"

Old man Li Jiuru was not stupid, and he immediately glared: "Idiot, you have artillery, and the other party has it, and there are more than us, and they are also better than us. They are not used because they are afraid of hurting innocent people. Now we fire the artillery, aren't you afraid that the other party will also use it to bombard us with big cannons? Tell the brothers to resist it, and immediately the Knodaotai will start. As long as you persist, you will be promoted."

While the old guy was talking, he felt a whistling sound on his head, and his hair broke in an instant. Several strands of gray hair fell down. The shot just hit Li Jiuru's head and suddenly lost most of his souls and seven spirits. He immediately ran behind the formation to supervise the battle and never dared to make do with it.

At this time, the two sides had exchanged fire for dozens of minutes, but there was no sign of what Niu Chuanshan agreed to. Li Jiuru's heart was turbulent, not because he had failed again. At this time, the old man remembered Qiao Yu's record. He had never suffered any losses yet. Instead, Niu Chuanshan was in trouble. Is there still a chance this time?

Just as he was thinking about this, a loud noise suddenly sounded in the city. It was a cannon! Li Jiuru was immediately overjoyed. The cannon was well-fired, and it would be best to kill Qiao Yu's group of people with one shot. At this moment, there were two more cannons, and seeing that the direction was falling in the direction of the Chamber of Commerce, Li Jiuru shouted loudly: "Brothers, listen quickly, the Chamber of Commerce was bombed, the Chamber of Commerce was dead, hurry up, the Qiao family's property belongs to you!"

The soldiers of the Water Defense Battalion were all excited when they heard this. The Lord of Love still had such a trick. This is called capturing the thief and capturing the king first. Don’t these people scatter? So they shouted loudly and rushed to the opposite side. The ruthless machine gun fire was still welcomed, and they fell in pieces...

At this moment, Li Jiuru also realized that something was wrong. Why did he fire so many shots? Why didn’t he continue firing? He didn’t know it, but others didn’t know it. After Qiao Yu controlled the artillery team, he sent people everywhere. It turned out that the intelligence personnel in the city also started to use it. After a search, two field guns, more than fifty shells, and five gunners were found in the warehouse of a rice shop. The angle was exactly the direction of the Bai Mansion.

However, the other two mountain cannons could not be found, and Qiao Yu was extremely anxious, but at this time, good news came. It turned out that when the two sides fought, Niu Chuanshan knew that the Taoist yamen was not safe, so he asked his subordinates to protect him and escape into the water camp to save his life. However, he was blocked by Qiao Zhen as soon as he came out of the back door and captured the Taoist yamen. When Niu Chuanshan saw that the matter was defeated, he had to come by the facts. The four cannons were arranged by Master Huang, and he carefully searched the Taoist yamen and captured Master Huang from the toilet.

After asking, I realized that two powerful wild cannons were hidden in the rice shop, aiming at the Bai Mansion, and the other two mountain cannons were hidden in the coffin shop and aiming at the chamber of commerce. This is also the place where Qiao Yu often appears. According to Master Huang's estimate, Qiao Yu had to command the battle and was most likely to appear in these two places. The factory area was a bit remote, so this was the arrangement.

Immediately Qiao Zhen brought people to surround the coffin shop, but it was still a little late, so he let the other party fire three shots. The three shots were relatively accurate. One shot hit the main hall of the Chamber of Commerce, one shot hit the backyard, and one shot hit the next yard. It can be said that if there was no preparation, the one shot in the main hall would be enough to kill countless people, because at night, many big merchants would gather there to meet and have a meeting.

Niu Chuanshan grabbed, found all four artillery pieces, and the riots on the market were controlled. The last thing left was the Water Camp. Qiao Yu commanded the army and surrounded the water camp. Li Jiu knew that Huitian was powerless at this time, so he immediately drank a bomb and committed suicide, causing the soldiers to surrender, and a chaos disappeared.

"Second brother, your subordinates really have a slant this time! A total of about 1,000 soldiers from the water camp surrendered, and they just chose the best ones and added them. In addition, the artillery teams have been handed over to you. Those who are still lacking are recruited immediately, with the number of people being the same as the first slant!"

How could Qiao Zhen be unhappy when his subordinates expanded their strength? However, Qiao Zhen also had a little concern: "Third brother, this incident has been too big, and there are no fewer people who know the incident. The big merchants in Chongqing, plus the foreigners in the concession, cannot guarantee that the truth will not be passed on. Then the imperial court sent troops to conquer us, how can we deal with it?"

Qiao Yu knew that the second brother's concerns made sense, but the Qing court could not control the situation at the moment. At the speed of the Qing court's dispatch of troops, it would definitely not be able to arrive in Chongqing for a month. And it also had to investigate the truth. As long as it was delayed for a period of time, the road protection movement would completely break out. If the Qing court did not hit him, he would still hit him!

"Second brother, don't worry, but we can use Niu Chuanshan again to push all the responsibility on the rioters who were infiltrated into the Comrades' Association for Protecting the Road. I wonder if the Qing court's confusion will understand it for a while. Even if they understand, we have the support of the local forces in Dongchuan, and after the expansion of the army, there will be a town of troops, what else is there to be scary!"

Qiao Zhen also laughed: "Last brother, Niu Chuanshan is going to bombard you with big cannons. Can you still do anything for you?"

"Unless he doesn't want a head, he will definitely do what we said honestly!"
